Automatic Rearming:
Automatic Rearming is a programmable feature which ensures that your
system is never inadvertently disarmed. It is possible to accidentally or unknowingly
operate the transmitter from a pocket or purse. You may not even be aware of an
accidental disarming due to the enhanced operating distance offered by the
Extended Range Transmitter.
How It Works:
Whenever the system is disarmed by the transmitter, this feature starts a 90
second countdown, which is indicated by a rapidly flashing Red Status Light.
During this 90 second period, if no protected entry points are opened and the
vehicle’s ignition is NOT turned on, the system will automatically arm itself at the
end of the countdown. If desired, the system can also be programmed to
automatically relock the doors when this occurs.
of the normal one chirp and one light flash. Additionally, the Status Light will
be flashing a “Zone Violation Code”. When the alarm condition activation
occurred, the Status Light changes from flashing slowly to flashing two to four
times between pausing to indicate which protected zone was violated.
• The Zone Violation Code will continue to be displayed until the vehicle’s
ignition is turned on.
• The Status Light will display the Zone Violation Code in place of fast
flashes indicating Automatic Rearming.
• Should the system be rearmed before the ignition clears the Zone Violation
Code memory, the Status Light shows the normal slow flashing.
• The system can store up to two consecutive Zone Violation Codes. If more
activations occurred, the two most recent codes are displayed.
Echo Transceiver Activation Alert:
If the Echo transceiver has been used to Disarm the system, it will show a
flashing icon for the zone which caused the system to activate into the alarm
condition. As long as the system is disarmed, the Echo will display this icon, until
the ignition is turned on. The Echo will store one Zone Violation Code.
Automatic Rearming Notes:
• Turning on the vehicle’s ignition cancels Automatic Rearming.
• Opening a door will suspend the 90 second countdown.
• All protected zones must remain non-violated during the 90 second Auto-
